The campground is beautiful, that's the only good thing. The bathrooms ruined it for us, they were disgusting!!! There were always at least two of the four bathrooms locked. That is annoying that the handles can lock you out. The smell was horrible and they didn't seem clean. We regularly camp at a different campground with pit toilets that are amazingly clean and don't smell. It seemed like these needed to be emptied. There was also a large group of teenagers in the camp that were always walking thru sites and being very loud at all times. I never saw any camp hosts come thru to monitor that. We definitely won't come back here, not sure why it's so popular

Positives of E07: nice layout and away from other campsites. Negatives of E07: close to bathroom, so the smell wafts over from time to time. Also, there is a skunk den nearby. Dump your trash before sundown (they are very bold and will get close to get to your trash!).

The camp hosts were excellent! We had to book two different reservations, thus we had two different sites for the four nights we stayed. Our tent was kind of big for the 2nd campsite and the hosts were very accommodating at letting us select another available site without hassle! They were great about keeping the place clean and even nicely asked people to shutoff their generators exactly at 9 pm. This is probably the first positive impression I have had with any camp host in any campground country wide!
As for the campground, it is no joke that this place is popular on the weekends- think 4-10 people per site with some sites right on top of each other. Moreover, the online campground map is visually misleading and you can't get a good view of the campground layout on Google Maps either. It's basically a crap shot on how close your neighbors are going to be or how large your campsite will be.
P.S. The skunks are very abundant as soon as the sun goes down!

Always love this campground. Skunk in campground and neighbors were sprayed which wasn’t a pleasant odor.
Host very nice to change spots because rain pooled original spot.

My 4 yr old and I camp here and we had the most amazing experience this year. The campgrounds were SUPER clean, especially bathroom facilities. The showers were 24 hours (THANK YOU), as opposed to closing at 5pm last year. You can buy firewood and misc camp items at the ranger hut where you check in.
Watch for skunks when you go, make sure all food is in good sealed containers. Skunks visited every night and were super cute until my dog got sprayed lol but he’s okay, the smell went away in two days. Squirrels will also steal food so watch out for those cute lil punks too lol!
We had the warmest greeting from the am ranger lady and the ranger couple that ran the station really made our visit! My son had a blast visiting them everyday after our oak creek adventures. We bought ice cream, snacks, and candy everyday and they really helped us out w camping tips, trails, putting my son’s headlamp together, getting the frisbee, and everything else!!! Thank you so much for hosting us, you made our trip super special especially for my son!!
